Shag Textured Pillow - with fleece

I'm not gonna lie. This snowy white fleece shag pillow took a lot of time to make. I'm not sure whether it's because I had to spread it out over a couple of weeks or it just took that much time to cut each little piece and sew them on individually. Whew! But I love the end result.

Makes you want to touch it, doesn't it?

I never get tired of texture

Every time I catch a glance I want to run my hand over it

I've seen shag pillows made with jersey knit, but I decided on fleece.

1 piece of fleece for the back 

and 1 for the front with bunches and bunches of little 1x3 pieces of fleece, scrunched and sewn in place 

and a zipper to close it up

Looks like I found a place for it.

I mean how many pillows can a girl have? 

My husband would say we have more than enough. ;)
